[[!meta title="What are Gitano's goals?"]]
Gitano is both a project and a program within that project.
# Goals for the Gitano program
The primary goal of Gitano is to
provide a FOSS git server
that a security conscious system administrator
would be prepared to host on their machines
and allow people they may not know very well to use it.
Other goals of Gitano include:
1. All configuration and metadata is stored within the git repositories.
2. Provide mechanisms to build powerful features out of
rather than hard-code logic to provide those features.
<!-- The bypass key is an exception to this
because there needs to be a back door if soft-code locks you out,
and the gitano-admin group raises the log level ceiling
because if the log level cap depended on running ACLs
you wouldn't be able to log ACLs -->
3. We prefer interopability over reimplementation.
We provide hooks and instruction for how to integrate cgit,
rather than implementing our own web interface.
# Goals for the wider Gitano project
Foster an ecosystem of tooling capable of providing
a federated equivalent to centralised solutions such as GitHub or GitLab.
